Niles roller rink reunion planned

February 18, 2014

ROLLER RINK MEMORIAL EVENT SET: For the past four years, local skaters have joined together in remembrance of the former Top O' the Strip Roller Rink in Niles that was destroyed by the tornado in 1985. This year's Top O' the Strip Skate reunion will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. Saturday at the Cortland Roller Rink. This is the first year that this event is open to children; however, it is not an open skate. All children must be accompanied by an adult in order to attend the reunion. The event will feature door prizes from the '80s, trivia, songs and prizes will be awarded at the end of the event. Attendees dressed in '80s attire will receive prizes as well. For more details, contact Cindy Weiss Rogers at 330-501-8680 or Justine Thomas at 330-501-0123.

BLACK HISTORY EVENT: A lecture "Modern Day Slavery in Human Trafficking" by Denise Narcisse starts at 6:30 p.m. today at the Youngstown State University's Ohio Room, Kilcawley Center. Narcisse, associate professor in the department of anthropology and sociology, has done extensive research on human trafficking.
